Does anyone know where I can find official information about whether we still need the fit to fly certificate? I saw people talking about it but I can’t find any official information on it. Thanks in advance!
Answer summary
As of now, travelers still need the fit to fly certificate, but it has been proposed to be removed starting April 1st. Most official information can be found on Thai embassy websites, although some users have reported that the fit to fly certificate is no longer required as of March 31, 2021, along with other requirements such as a Certificate of Entry (COE), ASQ (Alternative State Quarantine), travel insurance, flight ticket, and a negative PCR test taken 72 hours before flying.

i came in on exempt. So 45 days average. I had booked an airbnb for that 30 dats after quarantine finishes.

I heard someone saying they were staying with their brother. But they didn't have anything in writibg to confirm.

That fit to fly certificate is ridiculous, but I guess the COE remains?

Yeah the COE remains for now. I did see a few people saying that they are thinking of getting rid of even the COE but nothing concrete yet
